Abstract
The method presented in this paper aims to reduce the overall radiation exposure from X-ray CT scans when only the reconstruction of a region of interest is required. To achieve this goal, the Searchlight CT algorithm restricts the acquisition to X-rays passing mainly through the region of interest. The algorithm uses an iteration of the X-ray transform and of a regularized inverse, which converges rapidly and for which generic conditions of converges are provided. The performance of the Searchlight CT algorithm is illustrated on both phantom and experimental data.
